Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir until well combined.
If not fully melted, microwave for an additional 20-30 seconds, then stir again.
Add the almond flour, egg, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the melted cheese and mix until a dough forms.
Grease a donut pan with butter.
Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and shape each into donut forms, placing them into the prepared donut pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from oven and let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to restore crispness.
